About Game meat, bear, cooked, simmered

Brown bear (Ursus arctos), which includes the grizzly and Kodiak bears, has been hunted as a wild game meat for thousands of years across North America, Europe, and Asia, valued by subsistence and sport hunters alike. The dark, coarse-grained red meat is rich and robust, with a flavor that reflects the bear's varied diet and a fattiness that varies by season, often heaviest in fall. As a game meat it provides high-quality protein, iron, and B vitamins.

One critical point: bear meat can carry the parasite that causes trichinosis, so it must always be cooked thoroughly to a safe internal temperature, never served rare. It is typically slow-braised, stewed, roasted, or ground for sausages, with the rich fat sometimes rendered for cooking. Handle bear meat cleanly, cook it fully through, and keep it well chilled or frozen until you are ready to prepare it.
